jonathan coulton - the presidents lyrics
washington came first and he was perfect.
john adams kept us out of war with france.
jefferson made louisiana purchase.
in 1812 james madison kicked the british in the pants.
james monroe told europe they could suck it.
john quincy adams looked just like his dad.
andrew jackson got rid of all the indians.
van buren served one term, but he wasn’t bad.
william henry harrison died early.
john tyler annexed texas from mexico.
james k. polk fought mexico to keep it.
taylor was a mexican war hero.
fillmore gave a boat to commodore perry.
pierce appealed the missouri compromise.
buchanan saw the civil war’s beginnings.
lincoln saved the union, then he died.
andrew johnson just survived impeachment.
general grant enjoyed a drink or two.
rutherford b. hayes ended reconstruction.
garfield was -ss-ssinated in 1882.
arthur suspended chinese immigration.
cleveland made the railroad people squirm.
harrison signed the sherman anti-trust act.
grover cleveland served another term.
mckinley kicked the spanish out of cuba.
roosevelt was handy with a gun.
taft was big and fat and had a mustache.

harding said “let’s laissez fair with business.”

nixon was a sweating, filthy liar.
ford gave nixon pardon for his crimes.
carter l-sted in his heart for peanuts.
reagan won the cold war, and lost his mind.
george bush sr. poked at saddam hussein.
clinton gave an intern a cigar.
w’s legacy’s a work in progress.
that is all the president’s so far.
in the year 2005 we’re out of money.
somewhere, surely, freedom’s on the march.
i don’t like to make political statements.
